New NEY Headline

Swazzle · June 2013

It's not perfect but we FINALLY have a new headline! So long pre-planners (wishful thinking, I know).

I feel like there should be a disclaimer: Must love to drink.

audrewuh · June 2013

Celebration!

KeptInStitches · June 2013

Not perfect, but that's a lot better!

cu97tiger · June 2013

Sooooo much better than the old one!

MidniteRae · June 2013

Finally. This is way better than the old one.

minskat30 · June 2013

Thank goodness. Much better.

beanbot2002 · June 2013

I'm gonna get stoned possibly, but it doesn't seem much better in the way of detering preplanners. Just my (possibly unpopular) opinion. "Dreaming of your wedding day but not yet engaged?" still makes me think of some girl sitting in her room Pinning her little tush off.

I hope I'm wrong.

@beanbot2002, I think there's a difference in phrasing between "Dreaming of your wedding day" and "Planned your flowers, found your gown ... but not engaged?" One feels more like "every once in a while" and the other feels BSC.

Bean, I totally get what you're saying. It's not what it should be, but I do think it's a little bit better.

Swazzle · June 2013

I think the new headline will not attract pre-planners like a magnet the way the old one would.

I don't think it will have any effect on BSCness, though.

CLoGreenEyes · June 2013

It's an improvement for sure. Not perfect, but better and slightly more honest.

s-aries8990 · June 2013

Yes definitely an improvement!

Belle2188 · June 2013

Agreed! Definitely an improvement. At least it doesn't flat out encourage unengaged women who have already bought their wedding dresses. I'm okay with dreaming about a wedding--hell, I think I've been dreaming about mine since I was four

It's not totally perfect, but the BSC will happen no matter what the headline says and this one is much much better!

[Deleted User] · June 2013

I definitely think it looks better than what it was before. Hopefully it decreases the amount of BSC pre-wedding planners we get in here.

Peaseblossom55 · June 2013

It's not ideal but it's better.

I wonder what happened to the list of suggestions we created way back....

beanbot2002 · June 2013

Yeah, it's definitely not nearly as fucking bat shit crazy as the last one.

bethsmiles · June 2013

Yes, this one is better. Still a little on the BSC side but I don't think they will give us one that isn't.

Peaseblossom55 · June 2013

I wonder why they bothered asking us for input then on new headlines for this board then....

bethsmiles · June 2013

@danser55 - to pretend like they want our input

leia1979 · June 2013

I think Beth is right. We're always told to get buy-in on a project. By soliciting our advice, we feel invested (in theory). Then they just do whatever they were going to do.

When we brought it up in April, it apparently got completely ignored. I PMed KP the other day about the random deleted thread and mentioned the headline thing there and included @cu97tiger's suggestion that the majority of us seemed to like best. KP went with her own headline instead I guess.

cu97tiger · June 2013

Honestly, when I read it, I thought 'FINALLY.' No, it isn't what WE would want, but even though we are regulars, we don't run this board. They took what we had to say into account, and then had to make their own decision.

If you think about it objectively, 'dreaming about your wedding day' is something a crap-ton of people do, engaged or not. It doesn't immediately imply BSC, and the line doesn't seem to really encourage BSC either.
